Z-Space Virtual and Augmented Reality monitor
HTC VIVE Pro
Meta 2 Holographic Headset
Sofware Used:
3ds max for 3D modeling
Unity and C# For scripting, interaction and hardware integration
Description:
Cube-AR consists of the precursor to the 9-Cube VR project. In the original exercise in abstraction, students would take a 3" x 3" x 3" composition and later design a larger 9" x 9" x 9" abstract composition via transformation and translations. In this project, students utilize AR to design a small composition which the will later transform to a larger composition.
